ItemTableauWidget

Overview

Inherits the

TextureWidget⁠

where it sets the TextureProviderName attribute to "ItemTableauTextureProvider". This widget also uses the ItemModifer ID and StringId set from the Datasource to configure that

TextureProvider⁠

How it Works

The DataSource contains the ItemModifierID and StringID which the widget captures by reading the specified DataSourceProperty

After grabbing the ItemModifierID and StringID, each of them call the SetTExtureProviderPropertyMethod of the

TextureWidget⁠

. This Method adds the key and value of the fields to the textureProviderProperties Dictionary.

3. In the OnUpdate method of the

TextureWidget⁠

, another version of the SetTextureProviderPropertyMethod is called which takes every key,value entry of the textureProviderProperties Dictionary and passes them to the SetProperty method of the TextureProvider

4. In this base method, the

TextureProvider⁠

looks for the public setter in the sub-class that corresponds to the key value passed.

5.After finding it, it passes the value to the method that the setter calls which updates a parameter in a

Tableau⁠

that was linked to the

TextureProvider⁠

's subclass.

6. So now that the Tableau is updated ,

@OnRender()⁠

is called during

@OnUpdate()⁠

which returns the physical representation of the texture :P

Setting Values

When the ItemModifierId or StringId is set, each of them calls the

SetTextureProviderProperty method of the

TextureWidget⁠

. This method adds the key and value of the fields to the _textureProviderProperties dictionary.
